Because I love Myself
Because I love you I try to stay as close as possible
Because I love you I reach to grab your hand whenever I get the chance
Because I love you I try to keep you as happy as imaginable
Because I love you I ignore the messages of other girls on your phone
Because I love you I get up in the middle of the night to buy the drugs you called and asked for
Because I love you I let your friends do whatever they want to me when you ask
Because I love you I let you hit me and take your anger out on me because you always say you love me after
When did love become an excuse for abuse and manipulation
Love is beautiful
Love is strong
Love is Happiness
Not an excuse for pain or abuse
Not an excuse to be used or had
Because I love myself I am strong I am powerful
Because I love myself I am beautiful I am intelligent
Because I love myself I will not be used or manipulated or hurt by you or anyone
Because I love myself I cam no longer love you
